UFC 75 - London: Rampage Jackson Vs. Dan Henderson / Mirko Cro Cop Vs. Cheick Kongo

mookie blaylock 10

great final round. i really enjoyed that fight, but it was frustrating watching kongo try for the takedown in the clinch against the fence. he usually throws some very nice elbows in that position and i think he could have done a lot of damage there. still, quite a performance by cheick kongo to outstrike, and especially out kick, mirko cro cop.

You're entitled to your opinion .... I don't hate Hamill, I just think Bisping is a much better fighter!

HAHA


cro cop sucked again, man what was all the hype bout


kongo kicking cro cop in the balls 3 times is dickish in my book and goes against the unwritten rule of a fight

Kongo is a great athlete who seems to be getting better every fight. The big question is where does Crocop go from here?? Dana White might wanna rip up Mirko's contract and get his money back. LOL

hmm ... NOT the fight that I expected at all. I thought there would be a lot more stand up action. Kongo was pressing the pace almost the entire fight. Cro Cop didn't have any fire.

I give it to Kongo 29-28.

kongo's body kicks seemed to take a lot out of mirko. cro cop was moving forward the first round and backing up for the rest, so i think the toll of the body kicks started to show there. kongo was definitely dictating the pace for the majority. i'm surprised that fight went to a decision, and the way they were throwing i thought someone was going to land a shot.

good call on the decision.

i'm happy kongo has decided to start training where he is. it should help him develop quickly because he is quite an athlete, as you said.

mirko's in a tough spot now with three fights left, there's not much chance to get a title shot for him. hard to say what the future holds, eh?

Bisping definitely has the crowd behind him, but he needs to settle down and fight his game plan. Hamill has him back up too much. More inside leg kicks and I'd like to see some knees when they are in the clinch up against the fence.

mookie blaylock 10

not the fight i expected here either. matt seems content to keep it standing. his boxing loves vastly improved...still a little sloppy, but he has some power in his punches. bisping seemed to be back by the end of the round. uncharacteristic for bisping to circle so much, but i'm sure he leery of the takedown.

mookie blaylock 10

bisping is very tentative. first two rounds for matt, and it's mostly on the feet. very surprising. he's getting easy takedowns, but chooses to let bisping up each time.

crap, if Bisping lets this go to decision, he's going to lose on points.

HOLY FUCKING COW!!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe BISPING won by split decision!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

mookie blaylock 10

if bisping had about twenty more seconds at the end he might have been able to finish that one. matt looked wobbly, but looks like he'll win the decision.

mookie blaylock 10

bisping gets the split! i guess they gave him the second? i'm not sure about that one...

I don't know about the scoring on this one ... Bisping was on the retreat almost the whole fight. They must have given Bisping the second round because Hamill obviously won the first.

Gary Carter

yeah im lost on that to mookie, fight could of gone either way. hamill did nothing on the ground, kept letting bisping back up. still a good fight, most def lived up to the hype, i think hamill will be around for a while
